[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1004933, member: 6578"] Taylor makes all the sense in the world IF the team knows something we don't...which might include Jones not being willing to shred his massive contract and void years up to a point and restart to stay next year (he may have said this year in negotiations...)....or perhaps they know where Dillon and his agent are at and they don't see the value there. This makes a Taylor acquisition have sense and the need is there, albeit not in this very moment. It's like when we drafted Gary, zero need at OLB then but knew need would be there in the future more and more (Fackrell had one year left team knew)...who knew how long they'd keep Smiths.... I am not a fan of paying RBs big money, but also have news for folks - we ARE with Jones. Taylor is massively younger, has at least three or four more lethal years if stays healthy and IMO as much as I adore Jones - Taylor is a better RB likely here very soon due to father time being undefeated. Paying one running back and constantly shoving through Day2/3/UDFA backs as their depth I think is an okay way of managing money. Also NOW is the time if you want to pay a RB...not in two or three years when guys like Doubs / Watson / Love / Tom / Stokes / Quay and other young building blocks might be up or wanting to discuss extensions.
